Question

if the density of water is 1 g/ml, what would happen to an object with a mass of 80 g and a volume of 100 cubic cm when you place it in water

Answer 1

that object will float on the water

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the density of water is greater than that of the object , the object will float on the water.

NB. Density of the object=

`(mass)/(volume)`

Given that mass of the object is 80g and volume 100cm^3

substituting them in the formula

Density=80g/100cm^3

Density=0.8g/cm^3

since 0.8<1 which is the density of the object and water respectively, the object will float.
